Diagnosis.
Trissolcus hullensis
is most closely related to
T. solocis
,
T. radix
and
T. zakotos
.
Trissolcus hullensis
may be distinguished from these by the anteriorly invaginated metapostnotum. Additional characters useful for identification are: the paracoxal sulcus in the ventral half of the metapleuron, absent in
T. hullensis
, present in
T. radix
and
T. zakotos
; sculpture of the mesoscutellum, coriaceous or smooth in southern specimens of
T. hullensis
, coarsely areolate in
T. solocis
and
T. radix
; the color of the radicle, black in
T. hullensis
,
T. zakotos
and
T. solocis
, yellow in
T. radix
; and the rounded vertex, sharply angled in
T. radix
and
T. solocis
.
